Chapter 4 The First Mission

  Flying Ascension Nightmare Spider, as the name suggests, is a spider that brings nightmares to those who are flying ascending.

  The origin of this spider is unclear, no one can explain it clearly. It doesn't exist in the immortal realm or the mortal realm, but only lives in the ascension passage, relying on devouring the essence and blood of ascending cultivators to grow.

  This spider can be said to be the public enemy of the immortal world. The immortal world also has people who multiply and have children, forming large families. However, generally speaking, those who fly up are an important supplement to the immortal world's power, and those who can fly up are not inferior in terms of talent or anything else.

  There are also countless sects and families, with foundations laid in the lower realm, making it extremely important to absorb fresh blood.

  This spider wreaks havoc in the Flying Ascension space, and countless Flying Ascenders are resentful because of this.

  What's even more hateful is that those who can fly up from the lower realm are mostly at the level of wandering immortals, and it's rare to find anyone above the second level - this requires a long-established family of cultivators to carefully cultivate, just to have a slight chance.

  As for the three levels of ascension, among one thousand flying ascenders, it's not necessarily guaranteed that even one will appear. Resources are certainly important, but personal talent is even more crucial.

  The Flying Spinning Nightmare Spider is a level 5 wild beast.

  The immortal world is very careful to strangle this public enemy, but generally speaking, the flying ascender is not the opponent of the nightmare spider.

  It is precisely because of this that although this thing is very famous in the immortal world and its rank is not high, it is rare for anyone to have seen it with their own eyes.

  Zheng's uncle and nephew were able to see this object in a pawnshop in Qing Shi Cheng, it was truly a coincidence of time and luck.

  Zheng Zitu thought for a long time before answering in a low voice, "The person who just went out, his rank is not high... what level did he come from?"

  "First-class fairy," the middle-aged man replied in a low voice. He didn't catch up with that person, and to avoid arousing the shopkeeper's suspicion, he didn't make any big moves either. However, he still noticed the other party's boundary.

  "That... is he waiting for the ransom?" Zheng Zita asked in a low voice. The Zheng family was not short of this small amount of money, and his being tied up by the Ling Ring was just a temporary setback. Moreover, the flying spider that had risen to the sky was not of great practical significance.

  It is only in large-scale battles that the importance of spatial materials can be reflected, at which time a huge amount of resources are needed.

  But the key point is... it involves merit, no need to say more, just for the sake of merit, it's worth forcing a purchase once.

  Chen Taizhong didn't know that the origin of the things he was selling had already been seen through by others. He clutched two pieces of spiritual stone in his hand and tossed them back and forth as he arrived at the Task Hall.

  "Accepting task number 667," he handed over two spirit stones, "the information about the fierce sun fruit provided by the publisher is the deposit."

  It wasn't the same staff member who had just attended to him, but this one was also familiar with these things, so he asked again, "Don't you want a Shadow Stone? Two Spirit Stones as deposit."

  "If I fail, I don't want these two spirits," Chen Taizhong replied casually - after all, he was used to being a big shot in his previous life, and although his current cultivation level was extremely low, he had been depressed for a day and needed to find some balance. "It's not that I'm short of money, I just found a way to make some earlier."

  "Suit yourself," he said, not saying much more, the more you say, the more you provoke people. After the other party disappeared from view, he let out a low sigh, "A first-class wandering immortal, huh... Did I really think this task was so easy?"

  Chen Taizhong didn't hear his muttering, took over a jade slip with a simple route map recorded on it, turned around and left. However, not long after leaving the city, he found that the difficulty of the task seemed to be not quite right.

  He first met a rabbit that could spit fire, then met a bat that could emit lightning, and then met a group of earthworms that could launch spiritual attacks - each earthworm was over one meter long.

  Rabbits and bats are still okay, but the earthworm group is really hard to deal with. These guys hide far away and directly launch spiritual attacks. His aura can't suppress the earthworms much, so he can only move forward and engage in close combat.

  But this thing has a natural talent for escaping into the earth, and its whole body is covered in mud, making it extremely slippery. When he tried to punch it, his strength was completely dissipated - after half a day of fighting, he had only managed to knock out an earthworm.

  Then he took out a large chopper from the Xumi ring, before flying up, he had packed many miscellaneous things in the Xumi ring, even stealing twenty or so nuclear bombs - no choice, who knew what was going on in the immortal realm, always better to be prepared.

  But this knife is useless, made of ordinary iron, it can't even break through defenses, and it's not as good as his fists.

  And this group of earthworms still held a grudge, chasing after him and launching a spiritual attack.

  Chen Taizhong wasn't interested in getting entangled with them, he was looking for information on acquisitions, he remembered seven or eight of them, but there was no acquisition about earthworms - it doesn't matter if you guys are killed, but there's no income.

  He could abstain from food in the mortal world, but after arriving in the immortal realm, he clearly felt hungry, and this hunger grew with the consumption of his physical strength - his physical strength was limited, so he had to use it sparingly.

  But these earthworms were really too annoying, chasing him for over ten miles until he entered a sparse forest, where they stopped at the edge of the forest and didn't chase him anymore. However, at this moment, spiritual attacks came flooding in like a tide.

  Chen Taizhong's cultivation was focused on the airway, so he wasn't too afraid of spiritual attacks. However, even so, he still felt a bit dizzy and his eyes were blurry. Adding to that, his physical strength had been greatly consumed, so he sat under a tree, panting for a good while before recovering somewhat.

  His stomach was getting hungrier and hungrier, but he didn't dare to relax at all. The earthworms hadn't chased in, proving that there were big guys in the forest.

  After resting until he was refreshed, he slowly got up and began to trek laboriously through the forest, his machete occasionally killing a few small insects that were not careful.

  Suddenly, the ground began to shake slightly, followed by a loud rumbling sound, and a wild boar the size of a donkey appeared not far away.

  This wild boar is so arrogant, running on the road recklessly, casually scratching its itch on the trunk of a tree, and the big tree with a diameter as large as a washbasin was shaken straight, making a creaking sound.

  Chen Taizhong saw this and without hesitation hid behind a large tree, using his Qi-gathering technique, not even daring to breathe loudly.

  This big guy, nine out of ten is the thing that scares earthworms from entering the forest, and Chen had already experienced the hardness of this tree, he didn't want to confront it.

  He just hoped that his concealment technique could deceive the opponent - the extent of this thing's ferocity might be comparable to that spider.

  That wild boar indeed did not notice him and soon ran away recklessly.

  Such a wild boar, Chen Taizhong encountered three in the forest, but due to his caution, he finally avoided them one by one.

  In the next valley, he encountered another group of centipedes and finally picked the Lianyang fruit two days later.

  He narrowly escaped the worm's pursuit and arrived in the suburbs not far from Qing Shi City, truly exhausted physically and mentally. For the past two days, he had been relying on instant noodles to sustain himself.

  After arriving in the suburbs, he could no longer bear it, took out a frying pan, fried more than a dozen eggs, and then fried about five catties of mutton, his stomach was slightly relieved.

  For some reason, in the immortal realm, his appetite was at least five times larger than on Earth, and he got hungry extremely quickly.

  He was so hungry that he could only make up for it with quantity, Chen Taizhong ate while pondering: this task, a first-level Youxian doing it, is really too troublesome, that wild boar must be a second-level savage beast.

  After eating a big meal, he finally stood up, and at this moment, four or five young men walked over from afar.

  Several young men saw him, first stunned, then after seeing his situation clearly, the leading young man raised his chin and said, "Ask him what he got."

  These young men are all Xian San or Xian Si level, in this desolate wilderness, suddenly encountering a Xian Yi level one, isn't it just a matter of bullying at will?

  A youth with a raised eyebrow pattern walked up, opened his arms and said in a loud voice like a male duck, "You little rascal, be sensible and take out your gains."

  Chen Taizhong was so depressed in his heart that it's not even worth mentioning. He could be bullied by just anyone.

  However, there are bad boys everywhere, he thought for a moment and took out three Lixiang fruits from his pocket, "It's this one."

  This time, he harvested a total of 93 Lieren fruits. Some of the fruits were not yet ripe and would have to be picked later.

  Ten Luminous Sun Fruits are worth three Spirit Stones. Ninety fruits would be twenty-seven Spirit Stones. These three remaining Luminous Sun Fruits don't mean much either.

  "I've got it, Lieyang fruit," said the public duck, taking over the Lieyang fruit and reaching into his opponent's chest with one hand, "Is there anything else?"

  There are many storage devices in the immortal world, but ordinary people still use storage bags. Second- and third-level wandering immortals hang them at their waist, which is also a symbol of status - I have a storage bag too.

  As for Chen Taizhong, this kind of first-class wandering immortal, having a Xumi ring is really unthinkable for ordinary people.

  Chen Taizhong gambled and thought he wouldn't get caught, but as expected, the public security officer searched his pockets and slapped him on the ear, "Get out, poor devil... Hey, you actually dare to hide?"

  Chen Taizhong was suddenly pulled by him and flashed out a long distance with his body.

  At this moment, the sense of humiliation in his heart was not a little bit, but he really didn't know the various rules of the immortal world, and could only grit his teeth and say, "That's about it, you've already taken my things."

  "Huh, you're looking for a fight, little one," said the old duck, taking a step forward.

  Chen Taizhong, however, had already broken free from the encirclement of several people, turned around and rushed away. The young men threw out their magical techniques one after another, but his figure was really strange, those magical techniques couldn't get close to him at all, and he disappeared into the distance in the blink of an eye.

  "This guy's cheap," the sturdy young man who led them said with a snort, pulling out a talisman from his storage bag and speaking proudly. "If he were one level higher, it would be worth using a talisman to take care of him."

  "He's not worth a single paper charm," someone chuckled and said...

  Chen Taizhong left, rushed to the main courtyard to hand in his task, and the staff didn't ask any questions. They took his Lianyang fruit and gave him 27 pieces of Ling stone. "This task is long-term, you can continue doing it."

  "So many Lianyang fruits, who wants them?" The first-grade Youxian was a bit curious. He wouldn't be doing this task for long; for him, quickly upgrading his realm was the best way to go.

  "What's the point of asking so many questions?" The staff member retorted irritably.
